I'm taking 4 closers to start this thing. Then let the trading begin.

Smart.
Every year, playoff teams trade 1st round picks for closers.
The whole "saves are cheap" is one of the biggest myths in fantasy baseball. Look at last year. Which guys were "cheap" (cheap meaning FAs or set up men who became closers)?
Sergio Santos- 30 saves
Fernando Salas- 24 saves
Javy Guerra- 21 saves
Three guys worth a shite who were cheap. Then you have 16 teams at 3 RPs each for 48 relief spots

There were more than that. Jordan walden was another. Farnsworth. And 1-2 more
Eta: guys that were drafted

I drafted Walden & flipped him once he became closer for a 4th I believe (it was early tho)

And I would have kept Marmol, but I honestly think he single handidly kept me out the playoffs. He ruined some many pitching weeks for me

At first glance, I'm very confident I will get both guys I want at #2 and #9. After that, its a fricking mess.

I'm looking to swap picks to move up into the first round if anyone is interested.

My team could be OK but I have no speed at all.

They were still cheap. Anything after the 4th/5th rd is a crap shoot usually.

I scavenged a few closers last season and then traded when things weren't looking up. Never could move Guerra though, hopefully someone in the playoffs regrets not paying for him. Would have been cheap too, he had just taken over before the deadline.

Not so fast my friend

I consider cheap to be guys you pick up on the wire, not guys you waste picks on.
The gurus all say how they don't draft closers and how they can get them cheap during the season, which simply isn't true in our league.

You don't want the guy I am taking at #9.
Posted on 3/14/12 at 3:30 pm to reddman
Im confident it's no one I want, judging by your last 1st round pick

Yep, it's a lil different in a league this big/deep/competitive
